Really liked the staff, from parking attendant to the front desk personnel. The hotel was very clean and updated. The parking was not the easiest. Used the valet service and they very professional and courteous. The over all experience was very delightful. Would stay there again

First of all, Edward was the most helpful person I have met. He knew that I did not know what I was doing and he walked me through step by step and then gave me a glass of Champaign. The room service, I ordered a cheeseburger and it was as good as it gets. 100% on the entire visit.
